CIA: Comrade in America

Summary (no spoilers)

This movie is about Aji Mathew who is an adorable, fearless and humble youngster, who lives in a place in Kerala called Pala. He meets an NRI girl Sara in collage; they fall in love despite of their background. Their moments of love did not last long so do his happiness.

My Review (no spoilers)

This movie has a really good and unique plot I have not seen this concept in any other movie. It was filled with a somewhat action, a little adventure but not much thriller. Dulquer did his part well he can't be blamed for the way this movie was directed. Karthika has a lot to do to improve her acting skills, Chandini on the other hand got very less time span in this movie but her acting was noticed among the others. The other notable acting would be Siddique, Dileesh, Soubin and Maniyanpilla Raju. This movie had some really good standout songs. Amal Neerad as a director could have done a better job. The ending of this movie was unpredictable and good.

No I would not recommend people to watch this movie.

My Rating 6/10

The movie was a good one. I felt it like two parallel world's joined together to convince the audience. The movie could be shot as two different films.

Comrade In America (2017): Lately, Malayalam films have been high on communism when the concept itself is dead, at least in India. Earlier this year, we had Oru Mexican Aparatha, which dealt with student politics. Last month, actor Nivin Pauly had Sakhavu, in which, the protagonist rediscovered his left-wing ideals. And now, Comrade in America, which just used communism for hero's backdrop and nothing much.It is mostly about hero's search for his lover Plot: Aji Matthews (Dulquer Salman), a follower of Communism, travels to USA illegally to stop the wedding of his girlfriend Sarah (Kathika Muralidharan). He along with other people gets caught by the American police while crossing the border.

My Review: There's an interesting portion in the film where a drunk Aji imagines himself having a conversation with Karl Marx, Lenin and Che Guevara, who persuade him to find his love, Sarah. Were you under the impression that communism was at the core of this film? You were wrong. Even though the setup where hero narrates his flashback to history legends,his love story is so clichéd.Actors performances and Gopi Sundar's music helped the movie.

It is surprising to see that our Comrade doesn't even reach America by the last 10 minutes of the movie.First half is entirely in Kerala and second half mostly consists of his struggle to reach the border.

Amal Neerad has great potential in the script but he could have made it lot better but he stuck to the simple way.We can clearly see the clear wastage of huge script.

Dulquer is as usual with his charm and terrific performance.He is perfect as Aji and he even became a singer for this film and he is amazing in his debut as singer too.Actresses are also good looking and gave decent performances.

So,CIA is just a decent watch even though it has lot of potential in script.Watch it if you are Dulquer's fan.

My rating 6.5/10

Alright, first thing first, the Intro Music of DQ(Kerala Manninayi) made me to checkout Comrade In America and this movie is definitely not about communism or about the communist leaders. It is about the struggle, the hero goes through to reach his lover who is in America without visa and the life lessons that he learns through his arduous journey.

DQ's presence and acting is the only saving grace of the movie. As an audience you neither feel connected nor empathise with any of the characters.

The surprising part of the movie is the casting of Stalin, Karl Marx, Lenin and Che, which was remarkable and they looked so real and believable. Apart from that there is nothing enjoyable about the movie.

Comrade in America is one of the most awaiting movie of the year.

Amal Neerad,The Man Who Give Audience a New Treat has Not Gonna Gail Here.

i Watch the film In First Day First Show.
